The location is fantastic just 1 minute walk from the beautiful Manganari beach. The room was basic but with everything you need, spotless clean thanks to Demi and with a small balcony. The staff Anna, Sakis and Ilias have been great hosts. Restaurant and home made breakfast were excellent.

Just loved it all . It is a family run business and everyone was so helpful and nice. The rooms were basic but had nothing missing. The food was just so delicious. A varied menu everyday and all was so fresh and tasty. The beach area also was great. Plenty of sun chairs and umbrellas and nice swimming.

Amazing location just 2' walking distance from one of the best beaches of the island, clean rooms and perfect breakfast.

Traditional Cyclades apartment block about 50m back from the main restaurant which itself sits on the back of this beach.
Sea views, Very quiet and tranquil. Clean and well maintained.
Staff in the restaurant very friendly & helpful.

It's isolated. If you don't like isolation don't go there.
Excellent food and atmosphere in the restaurant
Excellent beach.

The staff were very friendly and made you feel at home. Even though the room was simple it had everything we needed. The room was cleaned every day. It had a lovely shaded balcony. Direct access to the beach and restaurant. The restaurant served excellent food. Fresh fish and typical food every day. Very cheap price for the room for the amazing location.

The host was great and all facilities required are provided. The rooms are clean and spacy

Great location on Ios and the restaurant and staff were wonderful. Simple room and comfortable. You spend most of the time at the beach or discovering the island of Ios. Manganari is one of the nicest beaches on the island and you are truly out living local - goat herds on the roads in the morning and truly peaceful area.

Booking.com Guest Review Guidelines

To keep the rating score and review content relevant for your upcoming trip, we archive reviews older than 24 months.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This allows us to verify that our reviews come from real guests like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or their comfortable room than someone who’s stayed at the property?

We want you to share your story, with both the good and the not-so-good. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Reviews Vision

We believe review contributions and property responses will highlight a wide range of opinions and experiences, which is critical in helping guests make informed decisions about where to stay.

Reviews Principles

Contributions to Booking.com are a reflection of the dedication of our guests and properties, so we treat them with the utmost respect.

Whether negative or positive, we'll post every comment in full, as quickly as possible, after it's moderated to comply with Booking.com guidelines. We'll also provide transparency over the status of submitted content.

After a review has been submitted, you can modify it by contacting Booking.com customer service.

We'll use the same guidelines and standards for all user-generated content, and for the property responses to that content.

We'll allow the contributions to speak for themselves, and we won’t be the judge of reality. Booking.com’s role is to be a feedback distributor for both guests and properties.

Guidelines and Standards for Reviews

These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.

Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.

Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.

All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.

Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.

The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.

By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

We stayed during meltemi's peak and it was also particularly strong that week. Manganari faces south, so it's not so exposed, but still, the second half of day had from time to time gusts of wind which were sandblasting you.

It's isolated. If you don't like isolation don't go there.
Excellent food and atmosphere in the restaurant
Excellent beach.

Breakfast was great but definitely more delicious pancakes!

Absolutely amazing hotel! Staff were so friendly and helpful! Location is incredible (although a little isolated - no nearby shops or attractions), beach was amazing and room was adorable!
Would definitely recommend Venus rooms if you'd like to spend a couple days by a beautiful beach in Ios - free lounge chairs and a very short walk to the rooms. I'd recommend to also spend a couple nights in Ios town too though as you only really have the beach at Manganari
